Suzuki Motor Corp. has decided to recall its Grand Vitara vehicles because of defective generator belts, China's product quality watchdog said on Monday.
Suzuki will recall 4,007 vehicles in China beginning February 28, including the TA04V -- 4M, TD04V -- 4M, and TD04V -- 4V, manufactured between June 2, 2008, and October 20, 2010, Xinhua New Agency reports.
The company said the problem with the generator belt could undermine the function of the steering pump and remove steering power in serious cases.
Chang'an Suzuki Automobile Co., a Sino-Japanese joint venture based in Chongqing, will oversee the recalls and replace the faulty parts for free.
Owners could contact the company by phone at 13816524549 or the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine at 010-65537365.
Suzuki recalled 10,326 of its Alto vehicles on the Chinese mainland last February because of gas filter problems.
